Vendor Agreement:
All vendors are required to sign the Swat-Fame vendor agreement prior to doing business. This document details all of the terms agreed to between Swat-Fame and the vendor. The terms indicated on this document are generic and may be superseded by terms on the purchase order. By signing the vendor agreement, the vendor agrees to all of the terms.
Supplier Qualification:
Prior to the issuance of any purchase order, all suppliers are required to complete, sign and return to Swat-Fame the following documents:
- Swat-Fame Vendor Agreement
- Trim Supplier Information Guide Receipt Acknowledgement Form
- Copy of Vendor’s Certificate of Liability Insurance
Non-Compliance:
Swat-Fame has developed the guidelines listed in this manual to reduce the extra handling and effort spent on many of our shipments. We feel that all of these requirements are within the industry’s standards and that full compliance is within reason. Our goal is to achieve 100% compliance with all of our vendors, thereby reducing the amount of extra labor. When a non-compliance incident occurs, a violation charge will be issued and forwarded to the vendor. The amount of the charge for each violation is based on the severity of the violation. These violation charges, as well as labor costs, are summarized in Appendix A.
Communication:
Swat-Fame is committed to effective and timely communications with our vendors. To that end, email is our preferred method of conducting business and contacting vendors. If you or your firm do not presently have an email account, we strongly urge you to obtain one. This will help facilitate the processing of all orders.
